Beginning in the 1960s, American cities enacted sweeping zoning changes that made it much harder to build new dense housing.

As the white flight era ended and middle class professionals returned to living in cities, these policies have fueled displacement by making housing into a zero sum game.
maybe I’ll get pilloried for like “not getting the joke” or whatever, but this is absolutely how, like, a comfortable percentage of Cool People think the dynamics of housing costs work and it fucking sucks

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

My plans for the Heard Island Free Trade Zone have been dashed. What will I do with the penguins I have trained to make t-shirts?
Trump is imposing a 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Islands.

The Heard and McDonald Islands are uninhabited.

Ange might lose his job because Lange spent the last summer too scared to make a tough call and built a paper thin squad, so firing Ange doesn’t actually fix anything, but Spurs might be dumb enough to do it anyway

The truck used in the New Orleans terrorist attack is a Ford F-150 Lightning, which is perfectly designed for this kind of attack.

It weighs more than 6000 lbs, accelerates to 60 mph in just 4 seconds, and the battering-ram-shaped front is nearly 5 feet tall. Deadly by design.

Your manager goes to the Etihad and plays terrorist ball with 5 CBs.

My manager rolls up to the Etihad with one CB who can’t use his left foot and a 50yo whose nickname is Gentle Ben and recreates a prime Barca comp.

We are not the same.
